The Jacaranda Festival Committee is a small hardworking committee who are dedicated to continuing the traditions of and ensuring that the Jacaranda Festival continues.

Our office is run by an enthusiastic and very approachable Festival Manager, Libby Pigg who is a former Jacaranda Princess.

The committee meets on the 4th Thursday of the month at 5.30pm at the Grafton Civic Centre. We welcome anyone who has ideas or time to spare to help out in any way. Just come along to our meetings. Our Annual General Meeting is held in February where all committee positions become vacant and are then re-filled. Our final meeting for the year is in November and takes the form of a "what went well", "what can we do better, constructive criticism overview, and general wrap up of the festival".
